A tokenized fund is an investment fund whose shares or units are represented as digital tokens on a blockchain. Each token represents a fractional ownership stake in the fund’s underlying assets, which can include traditional securities, real estate, or other digital assets. This structure enables greater liquidity, transparency, and fractional ownership, potentially lowering investment barriers and facilitating easier transferability. Tokenized funds leverage blockchain technology to modernize asset management and democratize access to investment vehicles.
Context

Discussions center on the regulatory challenges of issuing and managing these funds, as well as their potential to unlock new forms of capital formation. The development of clear legal frameworks is essential for the widespread adoption and institutional acceptance of tokenized investment products.
